    Last weekend, I had a pet adoption event. Another volunteer and I put together a bunch of handmade goodness and had a raffle. My part was homemade cookies and a handmade journal. We raised $400! AND 25 kitties and 4 dogs got new forever homes ❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊😊

    I really appreciate that you recorded this on the fly, without having it preplanned. It’s always informative to see someone else’s process (especially someone as talented as you)! To witness how you problem-solve those inevitable “glitches” that always arise. Thank you for letting us in on your workflow and continuing to share your marvelous creativity with us!

    This is fantastic timing, as my husband is throwing away several boxes of old papers ( going back to the 60s) he was given from a chorus he belongs to. I asked him to let me have all the dividers and folders, only problem is they smell musty. But this folder is exactly what I have to work with, and as you said, whatever I make it's better than going to the recycle bin!
    Thanks for this video. Sandy

    I have to say that it was refreshing to see you have to make corrections. That is true crafting. Of course it still turned out perfect. But I get to the stage of a mistake and get upset with it and sometimes give up. I loved watching you just keep pushing forward and still getting something functional. Have a junk tote that I would like to get into and finish my mistakes. This has given me some ideas. Thank you for another great video.

    Hi Natasha! I love waking up Saturday morning, getting my morning chores done and then settling down to watch your video. I’m really enjoying these on the fly creating videos. And the little oops you had. Well that just makes it more real. We get to see the master make it and then fix it. And if it happens to you, well it makes it that much easier for someone like me to know it can happen to even you and it’s fixable. Does that make sense? I enjoyed this video so much. And it turned out so nice. I love the fabrics and the envelope on the outside. That print is beautiful. Okay, back to my chores. Thanks Natasha! Have a good weekend and week!
    ❤️💜💚

    Natasa, you take my breath away! Your imagination is unlimited. I am so new at this craft and I have watched so many of your videos. I want to make everything. I must start small. This file folder is so gorgeous. I was hoping to get advice about how to start collecting fabric. I have none and I figure I need to think out of the box so as not to spend a lot of money.
